75ac of good Westmeath forestry could be just the job with a ?3,000/ac asking price
Pardon the pun, but forestry as an investment is a slow burner. What it lacks in speed, it makes up for in steadiness of return and is a surer investment than most commercial pursuits that depend on the vagaries of nature.
Anyone with an interest in the business would be advised to take a second look at 75ac of well-managed forestry which has come on the market in Co Westmeath at a guide price of €3,000/ac. The timber in both cases has another two to three years remaining.
